Ahh thank you! I for sure debated whether or not to actually go forward with the buttons—glad they’re not the terrible distraction I feared they might be. I’ll keep laying the groundwork in the next few chapters. I’m super stoked to see where you go with these ideas after that ;)
I like this story and this world; the tech is fascinating, and that opening line is just gold. I want to know more!
I think of those three options re: space travel, I may just have to stay on Earth; I don't have the science skills for the ISS or the money for the posh way or the health for the third way. So it goes. :)
Thank you, Michael! I’m thrilled to hear you like the tech—this world will be absolutely choc full :D And I’m so glad you’re in for the murder-sorta-mystery plot going on.
Re space travel, you’ve uncovered something I missed, thank you for that! The whole point of the Posh era is to get enough initial interest from early investors to expand the market so more people can afford it. I also more or less miss the categories’ requirements in the same ways you do, and we’re probably the majority. One of the reasons I work in space is to serve that mission to bring the cost of entry down. Keep your eyes on Virgin Galactic’s space plane or Space Perspective’s balloon, and other companies like ‘em. Hopefully in a decade or so, a day trip to space in will be roughly equivalent to a trip to Disney Land. Or if SpaceX’s Starship gets its way, and replaces commercial aircraft inudstry, we could all be queuing up to board a rocket for our 2045 vacation trip, crossing the globe in about an hour.
You totally made my day! There was much hand wringing on my part on whether this was too much inner monologue. So beyond thrilled you enjoyed it and are here for more.<3
Thanks a million, Keith!! Glad to have the feedback that the emojis worked for you! For sure do love exploring how consciousness can evolve with cybernetic augmentations! So thrilled you enjoyed it ❤️

I love the way you use the play/pause icons, very clever! And so many interesting ideas, can't wait to see how the story develops!
Fast pacing and a memorable voice puts this story above the crowd. Good job.
This is really cool!
Thanks a million, good sir—you’re a gentleman and a scholar ;)
I’ll do more soon, will get the schedule in order haha
It’ll all come together, I have full faith. Also how is it February?!?!
Time goes by fast!
I enjoyed this character and their inner monologue. I look forward to reading more.
